True. Why would they care? Unless perhaps someone tried to serve it to them.

When I was a vegetarian and had guests over for a meal, I almost always
served them meat. Granted, sometimes it wasn't a lot of meat but it seemed
just as long as they saw meat there, they were happy. For instance, I might
do a salad bar and just put out a little ham and turkey. One exception was
my lasagna. Nobody ever complained about that. I put lots of veggies in it.
Even kids who hate veggies would eat that.
